Epic hasn’t been compiling detailed notes for every patch like they used to, so we’re putting together a list of everything that changed in the new update.

Licensed Emote Audio Option
If you’re a content creator then you’ll have the option to mute audio from licensed audio! This is useful if you’re worried about YouTube or Twitch flagging your video if someone uses an emote likeNever Gonnanear you. This option will currently only be available for PC, but will be rolling out to console players in a later patch. It also likely means that Epic will be adding moreEmotesthat use licensed audio in the future!
PC Players: In the 12.00 update, we’ve added the ability to mute Licensed Emote Audio. This option is available in the game’s Audio settings. -Source
We also intend to bring this Audio setting to other platforms in future updates. We will update everyone when that happens. -Source
Team Rumble Changes
Team Rumble is getting some rule changes that sound pretty good! You won’t need to worry about deciding on keeping your Glider redeployment anymore, because it will be a free ability now. You also start with 150 of each of the mats, and you will only find blue or better weaponry!
